The United Nations has condemned the massacre of 92 civilians including 32 children in Syria.
While Syrian state TV blamed “armed terrorist gangs”, a spokesman
for UN chief Ban Ki-moon and international envoy Kofi Annan accused the
Syrian government of carrying out a “brutal” breach of international
law.
UN observers have visited the town of Houla in Homs province to see
for themselves the bodies of the dead from Friday’s violence.
Head of the UN monitoring mission to Syria Major General Robert Mood
said: “The death of 32 innocent children, lots of women and men but in
particular the children, is an unacceptable attack on the future and on
the aspirations of the Syrian people. Whomever started, whomever
responded, whomever contributed to it.”
The rebel Free Syrian Army has warned that the shaky ceasefire which
began last month is as good as over, while the Syrian National Council
has called for international air strikes on government forces.
